KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Northeast Kansas City chamber is testing out a new program this weekend called the "Egg Incubator.”

"It's the first step of many more great things to come to this area," said Bobbi Baker-Hughes, Northeast Kansas City Chamber of Commerce CEO. 

It’s a place where local businesses can run a pop-up shop to see what kind of response they get from the public, in hopes that business will eventually open a permanent space in northeast Kansas City.

"That wanted to come in and start a business, they just didn't know how to go about doing it, so the incubator gives everybody an opportunity to grow their dream," said Baker-Hughes. 

Visitors can find the third holiday pop-up event for different local businesses, showcasing several artists and vendors Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 2659 Independence Ave., Kansas City, MO, 64124

The Egg Pop-up Business Incubator Hours: 

Friday: 4 - 7 p.m. 

Saturday: 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. 

Sunday: 1 p.m. - 5 p.m.
